  • 1.  535 WAP in power reduced mode on 6300, how to increase power

    Posted Mar 03, 2025 09:59 PM

    We have 535 WAP on 6300, but it is operating at reduced power. Is there any way to set the switch to deliver more power so it doesn't go into reduced power mode? Is there a setting on the WAP that tells it to draw more power?

    The APs support intelligent power mgmt (IPM) that you can enable. 

    are these APs running Instant firmware? if so you can refer here  for more info

    I don't think the WAPs are running instant. On v10.7.1.0

    The IPM area of the group config is empty.

    Is there not some way to set/force the WAP to demand 30w or set/force the switch to supply 30w?

    you can enable it with AOS10 APs too.

    But do I want IPM off or on? Is there not anyway to set the WAP or Switch to max power?

    I clicked IPM enabled and it made the green lights turn on.

    Thanks
